As Rick Tocchet stated, half the team decided not to show up last night when they played the Bruins. The team has been flat at 5-on-5 lately and the power play's inability to produce in Boston only placed it further ahead.
TOCCHET TRYING NEW THINGS? The Canucks had a practice scheduled prior to their meeting with the Detroit Red Wings on Saturday. The team's pilot placed a different line-up on the ice and moved a few of his players up and down the line-up.
